Would you please let me know what you have put in the book regarding instructions as to adjusting the clutch pedal to retain the necessary play to prevent its coming up against the board and holding the clutch out.

I have experienced this trouble myself and I notice it happened after 7,000 miles in the last 10,000 miles test.
